I agree with most of that but I would note that our police work in a world with almost unfettered access to arms. There is no reason to be deploying the heavy armor against peaceable protesters, let alone executing kids in the street, but I wouldn't want to deny the police a trump card parked back in the garage the next time they're facing a wacko with a grudge, a bunker, and a shitload of guns.

Good point. One of the greatest tricks the devil ever played was convincing people that even the short time it takes to call 911 will already be "too late."

That the situation is peaceful now only because the strong and resolute actions of the previous administration were successful in preventing the place from being burned to the ground by the enraged, would-be rioters and pillagers.

Blah being put in charge only an attempt to put a politically correct face on the situation to placate the rabid liebrul media machine.

Seriously, this has already shown up in my FacePlaceSpace feed today.

It's almost like Captain Ron thinks it's his job to protect and serve the people. It'd be dangerous if that idea caught on.

How can you respect a man without an Apache helicopter and Ride of The Valkyries on its speakers?

<i>it might not derail your governor’s presidential ambitions after all.</i>

Maybe not, but "having no chance in hell of ever winning even before all this shit went down" will definitely put a crimp in his plans.

They can re-use all those NIXON'S THE ONE bumper-stickers un-ironically!
